Hi Faizan,

Thank you for writing.

Currently, the items of RadPanorama does not support this functionality properly and has issue with mnemonics rendering on the screen. If you use the ampersand(&) and enable the mnemonics, upon activating it the click handler of item be hit, but the item will be rendered without underling the mnemonic symbol:

using System;

using System.Windows.Forms;

using Telerik.WinControls.UI;

namespace Lab.RadControl

{

public partial class PanoramaForm : Form

{

private RadPanorama panorama = new RadPanorama();

public PanoramaForm()

{

InitializeComponent();

panorama.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;

panorama.Parent = this;

RadLiveTileElement tileElement = new RadLiveTileElement();

tileElement.Text = "&Applications";

tileElement.UseMnemonic = true;

panorama.Items.Add(tileElement);

tileElement = new RadLiveTileElement();

tileElement.Text = "&Games";

tileElement.UseMnemonic = true;

panorama.Items.Add(tileElement);

tileElement = new RadLiveTileElement();

tileElement.Text = "&Top Free";

tileElement.UseMnemonic = true;

panorama.Items.Add(tileElement);

tileElement = new RadLiveTileElement();

tileElement.Text = "Top &Paid";

tileElement.UseMnemonic = true;

panorama.Items.Add(tileElement);

tileElement.Click += tileElement_Click;

}

void tileElement_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

Console.WriteLine("Paid click...");

}

I logged the issue in our Public Issue Tracking System. The fix will be available in one of the next releases after upcoming Q1 2013 release, which will be available for download to the end of this week.

Currently, as a workaround you can use html rendering of text together with RadShortcut component to implement this behavior:

RadTileElement tile = new RadTileElement() { Text = "<html>T<u>e</u>xt</html>" };

tile.Shortcuts.Add(new RadShortcut(Keys.Control, Keys.E));

panorama.Items.Add(tile);

Thank you for the report. Your Telerik points have been updated.
